Chapter 16 Philosophy

The game began with a big jump ball win, and the Pistons had the first offensive power.

In the elbow zone, Rasheed Wallace holds the ball with his back.

In the era of emphasizing the inside line of meat shields, the interior line composed of Rashid Wallace and Ben Wallace has super mobility and can easily complete all kinds of defensive changes.

On the offensive end, Big Ben acts as a coverer, and Rasheed Wallace is the point of attack and occasionally the point of tactical initiation.

Billups received the ball on cover and Kidd defended him very well.

In the No. 1 position in the league, Billups and Kidd are the two best defensive players, the two are already iron, and when the two meet together, it is equivalent to their respective martial arts are useless.

Prince was defending Carter, Jefferson was marking Hamilton, and both sides made a change on the wings.

Billups passes to Hamilton, who comes out to catch the ball, Jefferson defends it brilliantly, and Hamilton jumper misses.

The first wave of attack was defended, the home fans were noisy, and the cheering and cheering sounded, giving the home team players great psychological motivation.

Up front, Kidd and Kostic made high pick-and-rolls.

The Pistons shrank their defense and resolutely switched defenses, and Kidd had a split second three-point shot, but he still held steady and chose a better pass.

Prince stuck to Carter like a kraft candy, and Carter took the ball to threaten three times, but the position was very uncomfortable.

"Tough battle, tough battle."

Wang Tomorrow off the court is also extremely shocked, the Pistons themselves are strong, and the state is particularly good, the speed of changing defenses is too fast, and there are all kinds of single defense and co-defense gods, he now recalls his set of blocking and dismantling + three-point shooting theory and tactics, is it really useful for the Pistons for outside players to block and dismantle each other? And does the Nets' three-point team have the ability to break the Pistons?

On the court, Carter's jumper was missed, and the rebound was collected by Big Ben.

In the Pistons' offense, Billups used Ben's high-quality cover to hold the ball from 45 degrees outside the three-point line and cut inside, hitting the ground to Rasheed Wallace, who was inserted.

Wallace straight-arm close-range jumper, hit!

Kostic's footwork was slow and he didn't have a balance between helping and complementing.

2-0, the Pistons took the lead.

Nets offense.

Kostic responded with the ball at the free-throw line and played the Nets' adapted version of Princeton's tactics. The offensive strengths of the No. 2 and No. 3 positions were all on the strong side of the ball on the right side, Kidd and Collins made a fake screen, Collins went inside, and Big Ben glanced at him and ignored him.

Then Jefferson and Carter's aerial cuts didn't work, and the ball stalled in Kostic's hands for too long.

Handed back to Jefferson, singled out Hamilton, shot was interfered with, deflected.

Frank has a bit of a headache, the Pistons' defense is too good, and every player is not a player who only relies on physical fitness, but a player who can read the opposing offense, which is very difficult, the execution of the player's tactics is compromised, and every shot is attacked in the most inefficient way.

Again, as at that start with the Jazz, the Nets were beaten by the Pistons to an 8-2 start.

Frank asks for a timeout.

......

"The Nets are in an offensive stalemate, and they're facing the best defensive team in the league."

Zhang Weiping pointed out the Nets' unreasonable offense: "We saw that the Nets took a lot of unreasonable offense under the defense of the Pistons, including you like Vince Carter against Prince's strong shot, and Kostic inside turned to face Rasheed Wallace's hook, which are not good offensive options. ”

"So the problem that the Nets have to solve now is the offensive end, and at the moment the defensive end is doing well, although the Pistons have scored, it is not because of defensive problems that others have scored."

The two themselves didn't find out that after hearing that Wang Mingming was the assistant coach of the Nets, before the concept of Chinese people winning glory abroad was formed in their minds, they instinctively explained that they were slightly biased, and stood in the perspective of the backward Nets to give advice to the Nets.

On the sidelines, Frank sweated slightly on his forehead, he is a master tactician, but in terms of the current predicament encountered by the Nets, he really did not find any good way to call this timeout, and he also made regular adjustments.

Frank laid out a tactical idea to strengthen the defensive counterattack, hoping to solve the offensive problems for the Nets in the rotation offense.

He didn't mean to fight for Wang Mingming's opinion anymore, which made Wang Mingming, who was originally ready to say something, feel a little regretful in his heart, in fact, he still had some ideas.

When the players were on the field, Frank approached him.

Wang Mingming and Frank stood on the sidelines together, both of them were wearing suits, Frank was already a famous young coach in the league, and Wang Mingming was even younger.

And because Wang Mingming has no habit of growing a beard, the whole face looks younger than his actual age, and even a little green.

The camera captured this very interesting scene.

"Wang is communicating with Coach Frank tomorrow, Frank himself is also a coach who is more offensive, and I believe that the wisdom of the two people together is enough to solve the dilemma on the field."

Zhang Weiping's explanation made the audience in front of the TV also interested.

"I think it's better to try three-point shots."

Wang Mingming chose one of the most unacceptable offensive methods of this era, which is contrary to the idea that the closer to the basket, the more efficient the score:

"The Pistons' ability to defend breakouts is too strong, and if it is not an absolute dislocation, it is difficult to form a strong formation tear against them. Breaking the Pistons' defense, in fact, was two ways before that, one was Shaquille O'Neal's efficient low-post singles, and the other was Manu Ginobili's crazy individual breakthrough. But we didn't have either type of player, so we had to avoid the Pistons' positional battles and opt for three-point shooting. ”

"We have two big centers with meat shields, and we can do some three-point shooting after covering."

Wang Mingming's thinking is clear, since he doesn't give it to the basket, then he can simply shoot it directly from the outside, "Collins and Kostic can both form a cover in one step inside the three-point line, and Jefferson and Carter, no matter who comes out, will resolutely shoot three points at the first time." ”

"What about frontcourt rebounds?"

"It's okay to grab it after shooting, if the three-point shot is off, the low flat arc will bounce far."

"We made 40 three-pointers, and if we hit 14 of them, the Pistons would have to score more than 20 to tie the score."

After Wang finished speaking, he looked at Frank.

Frank also stared at him, and his heart was shocked. The concept proposed by Wang Mingming, at least in this era, has not yet appeared, even a three-point team like the supersonic does not have a "human flesh" shield specially set up for three-point shots, and most of the three-point points are empty three-pointers after the player breaks through the ball, or the star dribbles directly after the pull-out.
